When you’re involved in any type of investigation, be it homicide to a routine traffic violation, an attorney should be present any time you are being questioned by police. This can ensure that you understand what is being asked. Often we are feeling frazzled when being questioned — even if you are guilty of nothing, the environment you are being questioned in (or simply the act of being questioned at all) can create intense stress that might lead you to say something you don’t mean. Your attorney will be seasoned in interrogations and questioning, however, and can help keep you calm so that you understand fully each question being asked, while advising you on when you should invoke the Fifth Amendment.
